Journal ArticleDOI

Withdrawal of support in intracerebral hemorrhage may lead to self-fulfilling prophecies

TL;DR: The data show that individual patients in traditionally “poor outcome” categories can have a reasonable neurologic outcome when treated aggressively, and the most important prognostic variable in determining outcome after ICH is the level of medical support provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extravasation of radiographic contrast is an independent predictor of death in primary intracerebral hemorrhage.

TL;DR: If contrast extravasation represents ongoing hemorrhage, the findings in this study may have implications for therapy of ICH, particularly with regard to blood pressure management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiologic and clinical spectrum of occipital condyle fractures: retrospective review of 107 consecutive fractures in 95 patients.

TL;DR: In this series, most unilateral occipital condyle fractures were treated nonoperatively, whereas bilateral occipitoatlantoaxial joint injuries with findings of instability usually required surgical stabilization, and conventional radiographs alone may miss up to half of the patients with acute craniocervical instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiologic Spectrum of Craniocervical Distraction Injuries

TL;DR: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the cervical spine with fat-suppressed gradient-echo T2-weighted or short-inversion-time inversion recovery sequences can demonstrate increased signal intensity in the atlantoaxial andAtlanto-occipital joints, craniocervical ligaments, prevertebral soft tissues, and spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

AUR Memorial Award 1991. Immunogenicity of gadolinium-based contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging. Induction and characterization of antibodies in animals.

TL;DR: The detection of antibodies specific for Gd-DTPA suggests in vivo protein binding with formation of hapten-carrier conjugates, supported by increased relaxivity values observed when Gd -DTPA dimeglumine is incubated in serum rather than in water.
